Home for all young master

As I recalled, I remembered a large light falling from the sky just before I lost consciousness.

However...

Zena: "Graysia-kun... doesn't the position of the sun seem off...?"

To my surprise, the sun, which should have been starting to set, was shining brightly above me.

Zena: "Could it be that I overslept...?" Graysia: "No way. However, it is clear that something is wrong"

Graysia: "...For now, if you're fine, that's good enough. Let’s head back to a place with more people."

I was still unsettled, but I left the place with Graysia-kun.

...

......

As we exited the castle tower and headed toward the square, the venue for the Kaiseisai Festival came into view.

Zena: "It seems the festival is still ongoing..." Zena: "It doesn't look like I've overslept into the next day."

Graysia :"Even so, If such a big light were to fall, it would surely cause a commotion..." (Wait?)

In the crowd I was casually observing, I caught a glimpse of someone resembling Graysia-kun's younger brother, Schnee-kun. Graysia: "Hey. Did you see Schnee just now?"

Zena: "I thought so. Were you with him?" Graysia: "That can't be true."

??: "Lord Frost! I can't believe you are here...!"

Graysia: "!"

(Frost-san...?)

This time, I heard someone call out the name of Graysia-kun's older brother...

As I turned to look in the direction of the voice, a middle-aged man was jogging toward us.

Graysia: "...!"

The man bowed respectfully toward Graysia-kun, wearing a kind smile.

Man: "Please rest assured, Lord Frost. Graysia-sama has done an admirable job." Man: "It was I who informed you about the festival, so please don't worry about the detour."

Graysia: "..."

Man: "Uh, Lord Frost...?"

Graysia: "...Let's talk later."

Graysia: "Let's go, Zena."

I followed behind Graysia-kun, unable to keep up with the conversation.

(It seems that person thought Graysia-kun was Lord Frost all along...)

SUN

Ask if that person is someone he knows

Zena: "That person just now, you knew him, right...?"

Graysia: "Yeah. But, that doesn't make sense ."

MOON

Waiting for him to talk

Graysia: "...Dammit, what is going on?"

As I waited for the bewildered Graysia-kun, who was scratching his head in frustration, to calm down...

My gaze met his red eyes that seemed to waver in uneasiness.

NORMAL

Graysia: "Zena, I’m going to say something strange, but..."

Graysia: "Would you believe me if I said that we... are in the past of Pelter?"

Zena: "Eh...?"

What was hesitantly conveyed to me was words that far exceeded my imagination...

I could only blink in disbelief...

To be continued...

Graysia: "Most people are at the Kaiseisai square and watch the stars, and perhaps, you'll be able to see them slowly."

While being led by him, I put my foot on the stone stairs that were hidden.

(How did you know this place?)

Zena: “Graysia, when was the last time you visited this place?”

Graysia: “I think it was around the time I was as old as Schnee.”

Graysia: "... I told the first star I saw at that time, 'I don't want to forget'."

Zena: “Thoughts you don’t want to forget……?”

Graysia: "That's why I want to see the stars with you."

Graysia : "Someone I met here told me. It's a long time ago, and it seems I've forgotten some details."

Graysia held his bangs that were blown by the wind and turned his gaze to the top of the tower.

Graysia: "On the day of the Kaisei Festival, I told the first star that I don't want to forget."

Graysia: “Every time I find that star, it reminds me of the feelings I felt when I conveyed it.”

(Instead of wishing upon a star, convey a feeling you don't want to forget, huh...)

(It's a wonderful but strange story... and it's not a ``thing'' that you don't want to forget, it's a ``thought''.)

Zena : “Does that mean that the stars will always remember your thoughts?”

Graysia: "I guess so."

Graysia : "I don't know whether it's true or not, but once again... I brought you here because I thought it would be nice to see the stars with you this time."

Graysia: "Zena you like that topic"

Zena: "Yes"

(That's what I meant earlier when I said ‘It's meaningful to see the first star together’''...)

Sun

Lovely

Zena: "I think it's romantic and lovely."

Graysia: "You don't hesitate when you said those words don't you?"

Moon

Happy

Zena : "I'm happy to be involved in Graysia's childhood memories."

Graysia: "...When you put it into words, I'm embarrassed"

Normal

When I told him about my own thought, he replied with a sigh

Zena: "By the way, what did you say to yourself in the past?"

Graysia: "....."

Graysia: "... I'm not going to tell you"

He played his bangs with his fingers and replied bluntly.

...

....

After reaching the top of the tower, I could see the beautiful scenery of Pelter spreads out before my eyes.

(It seemed that the sun is setting down slowly)

Zena: "The first star still hasn't appeared"

Graysia: "It'll appear soon"

Graysia: "...So, what are you going to tell to the stars?"

Zena: "Um..."

I had only just been told the story about the first star, so I couldn't think of anything yet....

Sun

I can't think of anything

Zena: "What should I do... I can't think of anything yet..."

Graysia: "If you don't rush, the first star will appear"

Zena: "Please don't rush me!"

Moon

What about Graysia?

Zena: "If that's what Graysia said, that means you've made up your mind, right?"

Graysia: "Indeed, but I won't tell you"

Zena: "Are you still not going to tell me...?"

Normal

(Since you brought me here, I have to think of something...!)

Graysia teased me as I'm in thoughts

Suddenly, a strong light from the sky emitted

Graysia: "! A meteor...?"

Zena: "Huh-"

Immediately after I looked to the sky in panic...

A loud bang could be heard, and a blinding light fell from the sky.

To be continued

(It's pretty... It's like you've caught and put a shining star into the ornaments.)

Graysia: Is there something that bothered you?

Zena: "The hair ornaments at that stall are gorgeous."

Graysia: "…………"

When I pointed it to him, Graysia-kun's eyes widened slightly when he saw the hair ornament.

After looking at me and giving me a small smile, he put the hair ornament on my head.

Zena: "Oh, thank you."

Graysia: "It's a good thing to come to see the stars in Pelter."

Graysia: "...Let's stop looking around the stalls and go see the star."

I looked up at the sky following Graysia-kun's gaze, but I still don't see a sign that the sun is going to set.

Zena: "I think it's a little early to see the star."

Graysia: "Yeah but it didn't make any sense if another star had appeared"

(What does that mean…?)

When I tilted my head, he glanced at the hair ornament I was wearing and narrowed his eyes.

Graysia: "I'm going to search for the first star."

He said that in a slightly worried tone, then he took my hand and made his way through the crowd.

(First star......?)

I looked at him with a soft smile on my face

Sun

You look happy, don't you?

Zena: But Graysia-kun, you look happy for some reason.

Graysia: "Well, it's not like I'm having fun at the festival."

Moon

Why the first star?

Zena: Why the first star?

Graysia: "Don't you feel bored if we can't find it?"

Zena: "I don't think so."

Normal

When I smiled at him, he looked away feeling embarrassed.

Graysia: "I've been to the Kaiseisai Festival before. That's why I knew where I could see the stars better."

Graysia: "You can see shower meteors from there, but it's still a little early, so please follow me."

Zena: "Yes"

I thought about the star that Graysia-kun wanted to see.

Zena: "The first star was so beautiful that Graysia wanted to see it again, wasn't it?"

Graysia: "Well, I guess I invited Zena to the Kaiseisai because I want to see that star together."

Graysia: "So there's a reason in inviting you... anyway, I'll tell you later."

(Together......)

His words warmed my heart.

Zena: "I'm happy that Graysia wants to see the star with me."

Graysia: "You...don't make that expression in this crowded place."

Zena: "!"

Embarrassed when he pointed it out, I involuntarily bowed my head.

(I wonder what kind of expression I had..)

I couldn't see Graysia-kun's face for a while.

But I noticed that his palm, which was tightly clenched my hand was getting warmer.

to be continued….

Zena: "There are so many people..."

Graysia: "It seems like it's a festival with a long history."

I felt overwhelmed by the number of people that came than I expected, but then Graysia-kun pulled my hand and started to walk away.

Graysia: "There's still time until the stars start to appear, so if there's something you need, tell me."

Zena "Okay"

(To be able to come to the festival with Graysia-kun...)

Just by holding hands with him and enjoying the atmosphere of the festival lifted my spirits.

Zena: "Come to think of it, it's kind of unusual for Graysia-kun to invite me to a place like this, isn't it?"

Graysia: "Huh?"

Graysia's gaze wavered as he was thinking, then he turned toward me.

Graysia: "...did I have to explain a plausible reason to the people around me that I was going out with you?"

Zena "...! There's no need!"

Zena “I was very happy to be invited by Graysia-kun.”

Graysia was facing forward the whole time, but... I couldn't hold back my mouth from smiling as he tightly grasped my hand.
